A member asked:
I think i might have pulled something in my shoulder. would an ace wrap do anything if i did pull something?

No: I would recommend a simple sling for a couple of days. Simple sprains or strains take 7 - 10 days to feel better. If you are not getting better day by day, you need to see a specialist. You can do some early motion lying down on a bed or couch to help move the shoulder.
